Riding Lessons In France

One of the opportunities that we have taken advantage of over the past year is for Joshua to have Riding Lessons during our visits to France. We were lucky in meeting Lisa of Mazeirat Equestrian Centre, who with her partner Graeme have built a menage in a wonderful setting not far from La Souteraine, complete with the ability to go Horse Treking in their own forest woodland.

Joshua has been fortuntate to have had around 10 'one to one' lessons with Lisa and mainly on his favorite horse Viking, one of 12 horses and ponies that Lisa has available. This has resulted in his growing confidence 'on top' and as the video below will show, Joshua has now progressed to starting to canter with Viking, as well as succeeding to go over a 0.7 meter jump.

We strongly recommend anyone to visit Lisa and her facility and take advantage of the wondeful horses, and friendly, professional service.
